Legendary drummer Alex Van Halen has a new memoir out called Brothers. It chronicles life with his younger brother, the late, great Edward Van Halen! Alex shares stories from the book and their life! He talks about emigrating the United States, learning to speak English, and the role that music played when it came to fitting in at school. He also discusses his drumming style, developing his sound, and his incredible musical connection with Edward. He gets into the formation of Van Halen, meeting David Lee Roth, the making of the “1984” album, shooting videos for MTV, and Van Halen’s headlining appearance at the US Festival! He also shares why he was so pissed off when Edward did the guitar solo for Michael Jackson’s “Beat It,” and why Edward hated being called “Eddie.”
